I love the idea of this project. Look forward to it!
Will this be based on the BD version of TPM? While the CG Yoda isn't perfect, I hate that original puppet.
The shake is perfect. Seeing it without the shake looks rather silly now.
When Dooku has Obi-Wan captured in EpII, he tells Obi-Wan about Sidious. I've never understood why, curious what others thoughts are on it.

Wow thats super rad.
Hal, just finished watching your edits, and I wanted to say thanks for doing this! Went straight from watching the Despecialized Editions to watching your trilogy, and it flowed way better than the regular versions ever would have. The pacing felt much more like Star Wars, and the annoyances were removed. The deleted scenes were all great additions, especially in Episode 3, giving Padme's character much more meat to chew on. I only wish that the official blu-rays had included deleted scenes so you would have access to higher quality versions of those for your edits. But seriously, great work.
I don't understand the technical discussion going on here haha, but I just wanted to say thanks for doing this Harmy! I'm in my mid-twenties too, so I didn't see the theatrical versions in theaters. The first versions of the films my family owned were the VHS Special Editions, so as a movie fan and a star wars fan it was a real treat to get to see these the way they were originally intended. My wife and I had a wonderful time watching these, and we were surprised that all of the original effects still hold up quite well (and in many cases look better than the CG in the special editions). Looking forward to the V2's for Empire and Jedi (though the V1's still looked great!)
